School Bus Driver Charged for Inciting Snowball Attack...

Recommended Posts

Two students were arguing on the ride home. The frazzled bus driver tried to intervene. Then came, according to authorities, the driver's offer to the entire bus: $20 to anyone who would bombard one of the boys with a snowball.

 

Seven took her up on the offer, and now Loudoun County school bus driver Katina M. Mitchell, 34, of Sterling has been charged with seven misdemeanor counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. And she's the talk of the county.

 

Authorities said the row Tuesday was between students from River Bend Middle School in Sterling. Afterward, authorities said, Mitchell grabbed the bus's microphone to offer riders a bounty to throw snowballs at one of the students, a 13-year-old, and push snow down his shirt.

 

When the boy was dropped off at the usually placid Bentley Drive and Algonkian Parkway, students who also got off pelted him, authorities said. Sheriff's Office spokesman Kraig Troxell said yesterday that the boy was not seriously injured but that his parents reported the pelting.

 

Mitchell, a bus driver for Loudoun schools since 2004, was placed on administrative leave with pay while the school system investigates the incident, said spokesman Wayde B. Byard. A woman who answered the phone at Mitchell's home declined to comment yesterday.

 

Troxell said the snowball-throwers face no charges — but they didn't get paid, either.
